Abstract
This text presents some of the questions I work with in my undergraduate research project, called "The fight for slavery in the Brazilian Imperial Parliament: 1831-1850", that focuses on the speeches concerning slavery made between 1831 and 1850 in the Brazilian Parliament. Reviewing the literature, that rarely handles specifically with the defenses of slavery in Brazil, and taking into account the main political groups that turned up in the 1830s, I search to delineate some rhetorical topoi common to the discourses of Brazilian politicians that tried to defend the institution of boundary.
